I've got a plumbing emergency, what do I do?
What do you do when a plumbing emergency hits? The very first thing is to make sure it's safe, and hopefully not getting worse. Electricity and water do not combine safely, so if you need to, turn the electricity off on the breaker box.
A lot of appliances and fixtures have service valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have an isolating tap below or beside the cistern. If you can’t locate a valve, or that doesn’t stop the leak, then turn off the mains tap to stop all the water to your property.
Once that is done, give us a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be there shortly to resolve the problem.
In the meantime, start cleaning up any water, put a bucket to catch any drips, and remove valuable items from the area. If the property water is turned off, also switch off the heating for the hot water.
I don’t know where the main water tap is!
The water main shutoff valve is located on the boundary close to the road, normally under a blue or black plastic cover. You may know it as a toby, stopcock or isolated valve. Turning this off can save your house from more flooding or damage to the hot water cylinder.
The toilet has its own tap behind the toilet.
We know a clogged drain can be a major emergency. Whether it is the bathroom sink, the toilet, or the gully trap beside the house, a clogged pipe is never a good thing. That is why our team of emergency plumbers are waiting to solve your plumbing emergency.
Obestructed pipes can be a serious health risk, especially if sewage is involved. Sometimes you can unclog it by yourself with a plunger and a little know-how. If you don’t have a plunger though, our emergency plumbers can arrive speedily to get the drains unclogged.
Whether your toilet is overflowing, your sink won’t empty, or your stormwater drain is flooding the yard, we’ll arrive at your abode quickly to resolve the issue. Our knowledgeable plumbers will get the water flowing where it is meant to go and clear away the mess.
Our vans are well equipped, so we can usually fix everything on the spot. In the unlikely case that we can’t, we will temporarily resolve the issue to minimise further damage and get back with what is needed as soon as possible.
Can I unclog the drain myself?
If you have a plunger, it's a good idea to try to unblock a clog yourself. We recommend a plunger with a long handle, particularly for the toilet, so you can stand out of the splash zone. Chemicals are not suggested as they seldom do a good job and can damage your drains.
Don’t let a blocked drain ruin your day. Call us now!
It’s been a hard day at work and desperately need a nice warm shower? Time to put the children in the tub? Have a pile of dishes to take care of? It is seldom convenient to turn on the hot faucet and suddenly discover that the water is cold.
When the hot water is not giving you that happy feeling, you need it sorted fast. Whether the heating element has blown, the thermostat is faulty and the water is luke warm or practically boiling hot, there’s a leak, or the tank is constantly overflowing, you want it sorted quickly so you can get back to normal life.
Leaks in the hot water system can cost a vast amount, and may cause serious damage to your residence. If you have an electric cylinder, hot water heating can account for around thiry percent of the usual household’s electricity bill, so a leak can cause significant damage to your pocket very quickly.
When you realise the water is too cold or hot, or there is a leak in your hot water system, ring our Varsity Lakes emergency plumbers as soon as you can. We’ll get the hot water working again quickly. If there is a lot of water leaking, turn the water off at the mains tap, and also turn off the heating element, until our plumbers arrive.
If the existing hot water cylinder is not repairable, our reliable plumbers can help in finding the best soutions for your budget, home size and your area. If the rest of the system is also worn out, we can organise an upgrade so you will soon be enjoying life again.
The pipes in your residence are a generally unseen but significant part of everyday activities. Large and little, in the earth, in the walls or the roof or under the floor, they bring fresh water to you and take the used stuff away.
Most of the time you do not even think about them. Not until there’s a problem, and all of a sudden you are standing in a pool of water, or even worse, sewage. And now it urgently needs to be fixed asap, to prevent damage to your residence, furnishings and health.
As soon as a leak is discovered, give our team a ring, and our emergency plumbers will be on their way quickly. We’re waiting to take your call night or day. Before they arrive, it may be a wise idea to turn off the main water valve to the home to reduce further leaking.
Why did the pipe fail?
Pipes can deteriorate and begin to leak for many reasons. If you reside in an older residence, they might simply be aged and worn out. If you live in a very cold region, they might have frozen and burst. In a newer residence, there may be a problem with how the pipes were installed. Subterranean seals might have been forced open by tree roots trying to get to water and nutrients.
Once they arrive, our same day plumber will diagnose the problem and speedily fix the leak or burst pipe. They can also evaluate the rest of your pipes if advised to look for other issues.
Do you own a problem faucet? A tap that will not turn on or off properly, drips, or is just straight up broken?
We have been called to all sorts of tap issues over the years, and we understand that even a minor drip can sound like elephants tapdancing at night when the rest of the world is asleep. What was a minor irritant, can all of a sudden be a serious plumbing emergency.
Not only is the sound vexing, but a dripping or leaking faucet can raise the bills into orbit, especially if it’s the hot water. Do not waste money and potentially cause expensive damage to your residence, call us now.
Whether you want a whole new tap, or just a washer that needs replacing, our expert after hours plumbers can speedily locate the trouble and remedy it. Our plumbers even carry a modest choice of taps and faucets in their van for you to pick from, or can install a temporary one if required.
As well as serving Varsity Lakes with emergency plumbing of all kinds, our plumbers are available for non-urgent maintenance and installation work. 24/7, no job is too big or little.
How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some rest?
Find a length of string of some type, and knot it around the tap spout so that it drapes down to the bottom of the skink or basin. The drips will run along the twine and trickle off quietly.
